I would explain myself as a singer, an artist... and most importantly I'm a part of Twice!
I'm nothing else but an artist, I'm sure, and delighted to be.
My first sense of myself was as an artist, a painter. I would see a Van Gogh painting and just love it, the more emotional and passionate the more it attracted me.
As an artist, there were different levels in my career that brought me to a realization that I am what you would call a pure artist. And I don't say that with any type of vanity.
It wasn't until I wrote 'Hideaway' that I found the song I related to as an artist.
Finding your voice as a stand up comedian means deeply knowing who you are as an artist and a human being.
'Awwsome' was a different type of song for an artist like me, but it's still a true song. I was talking street stuff, but I was feeling awesome.
Poetry is also the physical self of the poet, and it is impossible to separate the poet from his poetry.
When you know who you are as an artist and you have your own identity and got it figured out it helps you know what to write about.
